📰 Team News: Rennes
Jérémy Gélin (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) and Loïc Badé (Adductor problems) won’t be able to feature for Rennes manager Bruno Génésio.
It looks as if Rennes may well use a 4-4-2 formation this time featuring Alfred Gomis, Hamari Traore, Warmed Omari, Naif Aguerd, Adrien Truffert, Benjamin Bourigeaud, Baptiste Santamaria, Lovro Majer, Flavien Tait, Martin Terrier and Gaetan Laborde.
📋 Team News: Marseille
Marseille manager Jorge Sampaoli has some current player fitness concerns. Arkadiusz Milik (Thigh Problems), Dimitri Payet (Calf Injury), Konrad de la Fuente (Arthroscopie) and Leonardo Balerdi (Shoulder Injury) won’t be making appearances.
We’re of the thinking that Les Olympiens seem likely to begin the game with a 4-3-3 formation, settling for Steve Mandanda, Valentin Rongier, William Saliba, Duje Caleta-Car, Luan Peres, Matteo Guendouzi, Boubacar Kamara, Pape Gueye, Cengiz Under, Amine Harit and Gerson.
⚡ Prediction
We’ve got the feeling that Marseille might have a difficult job to score goals against this Rennes lineup who we reckon should do enough to score at the other end and edge ahead.
We’re therefore tipping a very even contest with a 1-0 advantage for Rennes at the end of the match.
Let’s see what happens.
